Abstract: Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF), as a platelet concentrated product, can store rich growth factors in its three-dimensional fibrous tissue structure, which can significantly promote the healing of oral and maxillofacial soft and hard tissue defects. PRF contains a large number of platelets, in which a variety of cytokines can regulate the normal growth metabolism, most of them binding to specific high affinity membrane receptors to play its regulatory role. PRF is playing an increasingly important role in the field of dental implants today. This review will outline the latest advances of PRF in the field of dental implants.

Key words: platelet-rich fibrin, tissue regeneration, dental implants
